    In fact, there is no absolute distinction between superior and inferior. Even strictly speaking, Reiki itself is a branch of the broad energy healing system. Many people will compare it with concrete energy healing methods such as singing bowls and crystals. Which one you choose in the end depends on your current needs and acceptance.

    A while ago, I picked up a girl who had just failed the postgraduate entrance examination. When she came in, she shrank and even her voice trembled. At this time, I usually gave her priority to use Usui Reiki. She didn't need any cooperation. It didn't matter even if she cried or fell asleep the whole time. The energy would automatically go to the place where she was stuck. After doing it for more than 40 minutes, the first thing she said when she woke up was "I feel that the tendon in the back of her neck that has been hard for almost half a year has suddenly softened." But last month I met a male visitor who works in engineering. His logical thinking is very strong. As soon as I sat down, he first asked me, "What kind of wave is energy?" Can you measure the frequency? ”, at this time, I would not forcefully recommend Reiki. Instead, I used energy healing that combined singing bowls and biodynamics. Let him actually hear the vibration of the singing bowl sound and feel the warmth of the hand on his abdomen. Instead, he relaxed quickly. After three times, the insomnia that had troubled him for more than half a year was mostly cured.

    I also have an old teacher who has been practicing Reiki for ten years. I always feel that Reiki is a standardized system that has been passed down for nearly a hundred years. There are clear specifications from initiation to operation, and it is not easy for deviations. Whether it is a novice learning or ordinary people's daily healing, the error tolerance rate is extremely high. However, some friends who do integrated healing feel that the effect of Reiki is relatively gentle. If you encounter deep trauma that has obviously somatized, such as stomach pain caused by long-term anxiety, chest tightness caused by family problems of origin, the compound energy healing combined with essential oils and tapping will be more penetrating.

    There's really no need to compete. I first got a Reiki instructor certificate, and then took a healing class with crystals and singing bowls. I often mix them when taking on cases, just like whether you drink warm water or milk tea when you're thirsty. It all depends on whether you just want to quench your thirst or drink something flavorful. Is there any absolute good or bad?

    Oh, by the way, if you really want to experience it, don’t just choose the healing method, first look at the qualifications and reputation of the healer. I have met someone before who spent 99 yuan to take online Reiki classes for three days and then came out to take the case. After finishing the treatment, he was flustered for several days. This is really not a problem with Reiki, it’s because the practitioners are too unreliable.
